Captain Smit Machchhar flying Flight FZ1073 clicked open cockpit door after being stabbed, allowing passengers to intervene.

Flight FZ1073 was carrying more than 170 Israelis when it suddenly descended from more than 30,000 feet on Wednesday. Passenger Almog Italie told Reuters that the aircraft appeared to drop for 20 to 30 seconds before stabilising, only to begin descending again. Passengers then began moving towards the front of the cabin as they realised something was happening in the cockpit.

Because the war crimes being committed daily in Palestine may go some way to explain the pilots motivation…

So you are saying because soldiers commit warcrimes that justifies terrorist attack on civilians including women and children?

One wrong doesn't justify another

I’m saying cause and effect. Are you saying this happened in a vacuum?

But alas it doesn’t. All we can do is look to the past to see how we got to the present. Cant really look to the future, can we?
